A Partial Entropic Lattice Boltzmann MHD Simulation of the Orszag-Tang Vortex
Karlin has introduced an analytically-determined entropic lattice Boltzmann algorithm for Navier-Stokes turbulence. Here this is partially extended to a lattice Boltzmann model of magnetohydrodynamics, on using the vector distribution function approach of Dellar for the magnetic field. (which is permitted to have field reversal). The partial entropic algorithm is benchmarked successfully against standard simulations of the Orszag-Tang vortex (1979).
